Yuvraj Singh and Rohit Sharma played a number of matches for India as teammates and their camaraderie is quite clear from the friendship they share outside the pitch. However, the first encounter between the Mumbai Indians teammates was not a pleasant one and both of them recounted the incident in a video posted on Twitter.
“Yuvi (Yuvraj) to me has always been like a big brother. Although the first few experiences were not good. So, Yuvi has a spot in the bus where he goes and sits. And I was sitting there. That’s where me and Yuvi had sort of .. I will not say argument but we had an eye to eye contact,” the MI skipper said in the video.
“Not that he is arrogant but he is Yuvraj Singh. Yuvraj Singh means attitude and all that,” he added.
Yuvraj, however, was not convinced by Rohit’s version of the story and he believes that it had ‘too much extra spice’. “I remember when he came into the team and I shook his hand. He tells this story with too much extra spice,” he said.
Familiar foes and the two most successful teams of the IPL – Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings – clash in a mouth-watering final on Sunday.
